Geophysical exploration techniques are effective for monitoring changes in the ground condition around the excavation project to prevent subsidence risks during excavation work, therefore, improving analysis techniques is required for applying and supplementing various geophysical exploration technologies. In this study, a field-scale on-site test was conducted to detect possible ground subsidence hazards and areas of relaxation zone that may occur during excavation work and due to underground water level changes. In order to carry out the field test, a real-scale excavation test bed was constructed and the geophysical exploration methods, such as electrical resistivity survey and multi-channel analysis of surface wave (MASW) survey for urban sites condition, have researched for optimal geophysical exploration parameter, design and correlation analysis between the results by reviewing the validity of each individual geophysical exploration and modeling. The results of this study showed the impact of each geophysical exploration on the relaxation zone and, in particular, the location of the underground water surface and the effects of excavation were identified using electrical resistivity survey. Further research on modeling will be required, taking into account the effects of excavation and groundwater.

The power consumption of wearable sensors and electrocardiogram regulators should be very low to extend the network lifetime and anticipated QoS( : Quality of Service) control such as error correction and authentication of data processed by WBAN( : Wireless Body Area Network) nodes is important. Therefore, QoS control is the most urgent concern to implement WBAN in health monitoring regulations. For optimal QoS control, we compare the energy efficiency and the average number of transmissions with IEEE 802.15.6 and the error correction method considering energy efficiency. The performance of the proposed error correction technique shows that the energy efficiency and the transmission rate are improved by adjusting the coding rate appropriately using the channel estimation.

High-resolution images taken by drones are being used for a variety of information, including monitoring. The management of agricultural facilities still uses mostly human survey methods. Surveying agricultural facilities, surveying the appearance of agricultural facilities, and the sleeping environment have legal and environmental constraints that are inaccessible to humans. In addition, in an area where information such as 3D maps and satellite maps are outdated or not provided, human investigation is inevitable, and a lot of time and money are invested. The purpose of this research is to design and develop drone system for field support incorporating AR smart glasses technology for the maintenance and management of agricultural facilities to improve the difficulties of using existing drones. In addition, We will also suggest ways to secure the safety of personal information in order to solve the damages caused by the exposure of personal information that may occur through video shooting.

In this study, a phenomenon of saltwater intrusion was monitored under various conditions regarding recharge and pumping rate using time domain reflectometry for a laboratory scale unconfined aquifer to verify the basic theory behind seawater intrusion and to investigate movement of salt-freshwater interface in accordance with the ratio of pumping and recharge rate. Results showed that a thick mixing zone was formed at the boundary instead of a sharp salt-freshwater interface that was assumed by Ghyben and Herzberg who derived an equation relating the water table depth $(H_f)$ to the depth to the interface $(H_s)$. Therefore our experimental results did not agree with the calculated values obtained from the Ghyben and Herzberg equation. Position of interface which was adopted as 0.5 g/L isochlor moved rapidly as the Pumping rate $(Q_p)$ increased for a given recharge rate $(Q_r)$. In addition, interface movement was found to be about 7 times the ratio of $Q_p/Q_r$ in our experimental condition. This indicates that Pumping rate becomes an important factor controlling the seawater intrusion in coastal aquifer.

The image information acquired by a model submarine is transmitted through the repeater. The control signal of a position for submarine and its speed is also controlled by the repeater. Shooting images of underwater circumstances are transmitted to the repeater where the received signal controls a position and speed of underwater submarine. This repeater is combined by a buoy that is floating on the surface to relay the signal of image as well as control between a control unit and a submarine whereas the repeater communicates wirelessly with a control unit. Due to wire communication between the repeater and the submarine, the underwater exploration can be smoothly carried out without a risk of loss of a model submarine. Also, connecting to the repeater and control unit wirelessly makes it possible to conduct easily the underwater exploration. The convergence technology that combines a wireless communication and a control as well as a model submarine is designed.

Annually, the scale of agricultural areas in Korea were being reduced as the lands were converted to other land uses. While the rate of productivity were either being maintained or increased, the pollution load from these areas were still greater in magnitude. Although the levels of pollutant concentration released in the agricultural watersheds were minimal, the combined quantities mostly from diffuse sources were high. As a consequence, the Ministry of Environment (MOE) in Korea adopted the use of free water surface (FWS) flow constructed wetlands to reduce the pollutant loadings emitted from agricultural watersheds for the improvement of water quality and protection of aquatic ecosystems. In this study, a constructed wetland treating stream water in an agricultural watershed was monitored since April 2009 subsequent to its completion in December 2008. Satisfactory performance was achieved for TSS, BOD and TP with 26%, 28% and 39% pollutant removal rates, respectively. In addition, the effluent water quality was improved and achieved compliance the national water quality criteria. Results of this study can be useful to establish design parameters and employ proper removal techniques of similar natural treatment systems for future implementation in the country.

하천 수위 측정을 위해서 우물통을 기본으로 하는 부자식, 초음파식, 기포식, 압력식, 레이다식 등 다양한 장비가 사용되고 있다. 이와 같은 장비는 모두 간접적인 방법으로 수위를 측정하기 때문에 기준값을 바탕으로 보정이 필요하며, 장비의 특성에 따라 여러 가지 장단점을 지니고 있다. 부자식의 경우 오래 전부터 사용되어 안정적으로 수위를 측정할 수 있는 것으로 평가되고는 있으나 우물통 막힘 등으로 인해 오측 혹은 결측이 발생하는 경우가 있다. 최근에 많이 사용되고 있는 센서식 장비의 경우에는 센서에 대한 정기적인 보정이 필요하며, 일부 장비의 경우 온도에 따라 측정값이 변화하는 단점이 있다. 수위 측정 방식은 접촉식과 비접촉식으로 나누어 볼 수 있다. 접촉식의 경우 물속에 센서가 위치하고 있기 때문에 홍수시 센서 유실 및 고장의 우려가 있으며, 잦은 고장의 원인이 되기도 한다. 비접촉 방식인 초음파나 레이다 수위계의 경우 온도에 따라 보정이 필요하거나 수면과의 거리에 커지면 오차가 커지는 경향을 지니고 있다. 또한 이와 같은 간접방식에 의한 수위측정 방법은 수위가 많이 변화하는 경우 실제 수위와 측정되는 수위가 일치하는지를 확인하는 것이 불가능한 단점도 있다. 본 연구에서는 최근에 많이 일반화되고 있는 영상처리 기술을 이용하여 자동적으로 수위를 측정하는 장비인 영상수위계를 개발하였다. 영상수위계는 카메라(CCTV 포함)에 의해서 수위표를 촬영하여 직접 수위값으로 변환하는 원리를 사용하고 있어서 기존 수위측정 시설과는 달리 수위표를 직접 눈으로 확인할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 이로 인해 수위표를 육안으로 확인할 수 있기 때문에 측정된 수위를 검증할 수 있어 수위측정의 정확성을 한층 높일 수 있다. 그리고 수위표 영상과 더불어 수위표 주변의 전체 영상을 동시에 촬영하여 실시간으로 전송하기 때문에 홍수시 하천 상황에 대한 모니터링 목적으로 사용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서 개발한 영상수위계는 한강홍수통제소 관할의 전류, 청담대교 등 4개소 낙동강 홍수통제소 2개소, 지자체 등에 적용되었으며, 적용 결과 비교적 안정적이면서 정확하게 수위를 측정하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편 기존 CCD 카메라 이외에 CCTV를 이용한 영상수위계를 개발하여 영상의 화질 개선뿐 아니라 하천화상 감시 기능을 강화하였다.

In our nature, the utilization of rainwater is essential for healthy water recirculation. This is one of the solutions of the increment of impermeability surface according to the development of new cities; this study of the improvement of rainwater quality has been carried on through the improvement of collecting and restoring system of rainwater. The southwestern region of Daejeon City, the rainwater coefficient of run off was 0.40 and this number had computed to 0.59 after the development. After filtration of rainwater, the heavy metal (Cu, As, Cr, Fe, Mn) contents level were lower than underground water. Moreover, collected rainwater showed better quality than underground water in following criteria; hardness, permanganate consumption quality, chloride, evaporation residue, sulfates and nitrate nitrogen. This water quality met the gray water quality standards. The rainwater quality was still suitable to use as bathroom flushing and gardening after 100 days of storage. This study proved that modification (installation of cover with gutter to existing rainwater collection system, proper filtering, and installation of underground storage tank) of collection system could improve quality of water and maintain this approximately 100 days.
